Apple device management and security company Kandji has changed its name to Iru, reflecting a new approach to what it does while opening its offer up to Windows and Android. It means enterprises shifting to Apple tech can now manage all their legacy equipment using the...
No, I don't have a good explanation for this either. Tim Schafer warned us of his twisted mind when he put out the Psychonauts games — both stone-cold classics, by the way — but I thought murderously paranoid milkmen was the weirdest it got in there. — Read the rest The...
Evidently, mango habanero is the flavor of freedom, as $50 gets you chicken wings smuggled into a Texas jail. A corrections officer was caught selling mango-habanero Wingstop wings to an inmate, paying himself first in drumsticks before handing over the goods. — Read the...
This weekend marked the second time I've needed a cone for one of my dogs, only to find I didn't have one on hand. This Comfy Cone is great. Golden Retrievers famously develop food allergies. I already feed my darling Electra some allergy and immune-boosting probiotics,...

Nuphy's Node75 mechanical keyboard looks like it gets a lot right, not least the $99 price tag, same as Apple's Magic Keyboard. It's compact but with a well-populated 75-key layout and vaguely retro design. The caps come in low-profile or mSA, there's a screenless touchbar...

Microsoft has published a set of short questions and answers about driver updates through Windows Update, and there’s one tidbit in there I found interesting. Driver dates might look old, but that is not true. The driver date is descriptive info set by the...
